Herbert George Wells (or simply H.G. Wells) was a Human writer who lived from 1866 to 1946. Some of his best works include The Invisible Man, The Time Machine and The War of the Worlds.
In 1953, Kay Eaton told her husband that Wells might like White Rose Redi-Tea, to which Julius told her that no self-respecting Englishman would. (DS9: "Far Beyond the Stars")
Daniels mentioned that Archer was thinking of time travel like an H.G. Wells novel. He said that in real life, it is much more complicated.
Charles Tucker read The War of the Worlds as a child. (ENT: "Similitude")
Upon her revival in the 24th century, Amelia Earhart, unconvinced of what she was hearing about the USS Voyager, stated that space travel was purely science fiction, such as the work of Wells. (VOY: "The 37's")
In the 29th century, Starfleet named a starship class after him. (VOY: "Future's End")
- The USS Thunderchild in Star Trek: First Contact was named after a ship in Wells' The War of the Worlds, the HMS Thunder Child.
